Constructor

constructor(id: unknown, configuration?: T)
Parameters :
Name Type Optional
id unknown No
configuration T Yes

Properties

Static Readonly CONFIG_KEY
Type : string
Default value : "CONFIG_ENTITY"

The ID for the UI and data-model config

data
Type : T
Decorators :
@DatabaseField()

This field contains all the configuration and does not have a predefined type.

Static isInternalEntity
Type : unknown
Default value : true
Inherited from Entity
Static Readonly PERMISSION_KEY
Type : string
Default value : "Permissions"

The ID for the permission configuration

Static Optional _isCustomizedType
todo: This property is no longer used and will be removed in future versions.
Type : boolean
Inherited from Entity

True if this type's schema has been customized dynamically from the config.

_rev
Type : string
Decorators :
@DatabaseField({anonymize: 'retain', isInternalField: true})
Inherited from Entity

internal database doc revision, used to detect conflicts by PouchDB/CouchDB

anonymized
Type : boolean
Decorators :
@DatabaseField({anonymize: 'retain', isInternalField: true})
Inherited from Entity

Whether this entity has been anonymized and therefore cannot be re-activated.

Static color
Type : string | ColorMapping[]
Inherited from Entity

color used for to highlight this entity type across the app.

Can be either:

  • A simple string (hex color code) for a single color
  • An array of ColorMapping objects for conditional colors based on entity properties
created
Type : UpdateMetadata
Decorators :
@DatabaseField({anonymize: 'retain', isInternalField: true})
Inherited from Entity
Static DATABASE
Type : string
Default value : "app"
Inherited from Entity

The database where these entities are stored.

Static Optional enableUserAccounts
Type : boolean
Inherited from Entity

Whether to enable user account creation for this entity type. When true, the UI will allow management of user accounts associated with this entity.

Static ENTITY_TYPE
Type : string
Default value : "Entity"
Inherited from Entity

The entity's type. In classes extending Entity this is usually overridden by the class annotation @DatabaseEntity('NewEntity'). The type needs to be used as routing path in lower case. The routing path can be defined in the configuration file.

Static hasPII
Type : boolean
Default value : false
Inherited from Entity

whether this entity type can contain "personally identifiable information" (PII) and therefore should follow strict data protection requirements and offer a function to anonymize records.

Static icon
Type : IconName
Inherited from Entity

icon id used for this entity

inactive
Type : boolean
Decorators :
@DatabaseField({anonymize: 'retain', isInternalField: true})
Inherited from Entity
Static label
Type : string
Inherited from Entity

human-readable name/label of the entity in the UI

Static schema
Type : EntitySchema
Inherited from Entity

EntitySchema defining property transformations from/to the database. This is auto-generated from the property annotations @DatabaseField().

see /additional-documentation/how-to-guides/create-a-new-entity-type.html

Static Optional toBlockDetailsAttributes
Type : EntityBlockConfig
Inherited from Entity

Defining which attributes will be displayed in a tooltip on hover when the record is displayed as an entity-block.

Static toStringAttributes
Type : []
Default value : ["entityId"]
Inherited from Entity

Defining which attribute values of an entity should be shown in the .toString() method.

The default is the ID of the entity (entityId). This can be overwritten in subclasses or through the config.

updated
Type : UpdateMetadata
Decorators :
@DatabaseField({anonymize: 'retain', isInternalField: true})
Inherited from Entity

Methods

assertValid
assertValid()
Inherited from Entity

Checks if the entity is valid and if the check fails, throws an error explaining the failed check.

Returns : void
Public copy
copy(newId: string | boolean)
Inherited from Entity

Deep copy of the entity. The resulting entity will be of the same type as this (taking into account subclassing). All schema field values that are objects or arrays are deep-cloned to avoid shared mutable state between original and copy.

Parameters :
Name Type Optional Default value Description
newId string | boolean No false

if true, a new entityId will be generated; if a string, that value is used as new entityId

Returns : unknown
Static createPrefixedId
createPrefixedId(type: string, id: string)
Inherited from Entity

Create a prefixed id by adding the type prefix if it isn't already part of the given id.

Parameters :
Name Type Optional Description
type string No

The type prefix to be added.

id string No

The id to be extended with a prefix.

Returns : string
Static extractEntityIdFromId
extractEntityIdFromId(id: string)
Inherited from Entity

Extract entityId without prefix.

Parameters :
Name Type Optional Description
id string No

An entity's id including prefix.

Returns : string
Static extractTypeFromId
extractTypeFromId(id: string)
Inherited from Entity

Extract the ENTITY_TYPE from an id.

Parameters :
Name Type Optional Description
id string No

An entity's id including prefix.

Returns : string
Public getColor
getColor()
Inherited from Entity

Used by some generic UI components to set the color for the entity instance. Override this method as needed.

Returns : string
Static getColorWithConditions
getColorWithConditions(entity: Entity)
Inherited from Entity

Static method to evaluate conditional colors for an entity based on ColorMapping configuration.

Parameters :
Name Type Optional
entity Entity No
Returns : string
getConstructor
getConstructor()
Inherited from Entity

Get the class (Entity or the actual subclass of the instance) to call static methods on the correct class considering inheritance

Public getId
getId(withoutPrefix: unknown)
Inherited from Entity

Returns the id of this entity.

Note that an id is final and can't be changed after the object has been instantiated, hence there is no setId() method.

Parameters :
Name Type Optional Default value
withoutPrefix unknown No false
Returns : string

the unique id of this entity

getSchema
getSchema()
Inherited from Entity

Get the entity schema of this class

Returns : EntitySchema
Public getType
getType()
Inherited from Entity

Returns the type which is used to categorize this entity in the database.

Important: Do not overwrite this method! Types are handled internally.

Returns : string

the entity's type (which is the class name).

Public getWarningLevel
getWarningLevel()
Inherited from Entity

Override getWarningLevel() to define when the entity is in a critical condition and should be color-coded and highlighted in generic components of the UI.

Returns : WarningLevel
import { Entity } from "../entity/model/entity";
import { DatabaseField } from "../entity/database-field.decorator";
import { DatabaseEntity } from "../entity/database-entity.decorator";
